After dispensing the niceties, the world number two faced a tight third-round battle with three players tied for second on 134 and another trio two shots further off the pace.
Opening round co-leader Jeff Maggert, the 2006 winner here, shot a second-round 68 to share second place with fellow Americans J.B. Holmes (64) and Kevin Stadler (65).
Tied for fifth were Americans John Merrick (69), Chad Campbell (67) and Kevin Kisner (66), with U.S. Davis Cup captain Davis Love III, Ireland's Padraig Harrington, Noh Seung-yul of South Korean and American Ken Duke another shot away at 136.
Another shot adrift was two-time major winner John Daly, who shot a second-round 69 on return to his former home course.
